TabControl Panel Editor


 

The TabControl Panel Editor allows maintenance of tab panels within a tabcontrol. The editor consists of two lists and nine buttons.

 

The edit window may be resized and a splitter is available to allow resizing the panels list.

Editor Lists
The list on the left side of the editor shows any defined panels. The list on right shows the selected panel's properties. The selected panel is highlighted in the left hand list titled "Panels" and may be changed by clicking the desired panel name.
OK
The OK button signals that modifications to the tabcontrol are complete and the tabcontrol is updated. The editor is then closed.
Cancel
The Cancel button indicates that any modifications to the tabcontrol should be discarded and the editor closed.
New
The New button inserts a new panel into the tabcontrol. The panel name defaults to the tabcontrol name followed by an underscore and Panel{nn} where {nn} is a sequential value.
Delete
The Delete button deletes the selected panel and all assocatied objects from the tabcontrol.
Insert
The Insert button adds a previously created stand-alone panel to the set of tab control panel definitions. The panel then becomes associated with the tabcontrol.
Remove
The Remove button saves the current tabcontrol panel as a stand-alone panel. The panel is no longer associated with the tabcontrol.
Help
The Help button displays this page in a new window.
Up and Down
The Up and Down Arrow buttons located between the two lists of the editor allow the position of the selected panel in the collection to be changed.
